When Bryn Mawr College opened its doors in 1885, it offered women a more ambitious academic program than any previously available to them in the United States. Other women's colleges existed, but Bryn Mawr was the first to offer graduate education through the PhD — a signal of its founders' refusal to accept the limitations imposed on women's intellectual achievement at other institutions.
With each successive generation, the College has expanded this originating mandate as it seeks to enroll the most qualified women from all parts of this country and throughout the world. At Bryn Mawr, students encounter a transformative community that sets them on the course of lifelong learning.
